CAUTION:
I was asked for the amount of 300.00 to advertise on New Years day and the day after for a spot promoting my home business and that the business would cater to and help out veterans along with other customers by Blueprint Broadcasting out of Chicago, Illinois. When the days and times where given to me to listen and family and friends where present there were no mentioned of the company or anything nada! , nothing, zip ola. When contacted for first payment i explained my concern and was told that it aired. Not so. When I asked for proof of the advertisement I was emailed this lame recording of the add which I still have that sound like mickey mouse on a caffeine high. After the first installment payment of 100.00 dollars. I started digging into this company and found out that I am not the only one.
Several phone calls for collection of money on my part have gone wearisome. I told them that I have not received not one phone call concerning work related to this add. They informed me that the add was not about the business at all but about the veterans . This is extremely misleading. I do support our veterans personally and financially in more ways than one but . However that being said this is a scam . Do not fall for this in a moment of weakness in order to try and benefit or promote your business. Do it the old fashion way hard work , flyers, internet, etc. I have now turned this matter over to legal counsel.

Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill
Blueprint Broadcasting contacted us and sold us a radio spot/psa on a local radio station. The psa never aired. I forwarded the invoice I received from Blueprint to the local stations account executive and he wrote me back to tell me that I was absolutely not to pay this they have never heard of Blueprint Broadcasting and it was clearly a scam. They called to collect their fee a couple of weeks later and I read them the email. They asked for the account executives name and number and assured me we would have a conference call between all three of us to resolve the matter, That call never happened. Now I am being threatened with legal action from Blueprint Broadcasting.
